Maverick is good for the farrier, easy to load, and has good ground manners. Good trail horse, will lead or follow. Will need experienced rider as he hasn't been ridden for a while so may need a refresher. We have used him as a trail horse only and he enjoys getting out on the trails. He is good with other horses. He currently has shoes on his front only. Easy keeper, he gets orchard grass hay and a little grain in the AM. Really hate to sell him but we just have too many horses and he has been put on the back burner. He needs a new friend.
